Before she could process what was happening, she heard glass shatter beside her.

“Ahh!” She flinched from the impact, the sudden force breaking their contact.

Raising her head, she looked toward the window and quickly realized why he had kissed her so suddenly. If he hadn’t done that, the bullet would have gone through her head instead of the glass.

She looked back at Dane, who was focused on something outside the window. For a moment, she almost hugged him in gratitude, but she held herself ba

    “What the hell are you doing, Florence? What are you planning with Dane?” Ashley demanded, grabbing Florence by the wrist the moment Dane left.“I only offered to help dress you up. I am not planning anything with him. Stop overthinking it,” Florence answered with a click of her tongue, shaking her head as though Ashley was worrying over nothing.Ashley refused to let go, staring at Florence with such deep suspicion that Florence swallowed hard, blinking rapidly beneath her gaze.“Come on, we only have fifteen minutes. Let’s get you dressed before he starts raging,” Florence urged, slipping her wrist from Ashley’s grasp before hurrying farther into the room.“I am so tempted to send you back to the pack,” Ashley muttered as she followed after her.“Come on now, don’t make a rash decision. You might regret it later,” Florence whined, leaving Ashley momentarily speechless.…“It has been more than fifteen minutes. Should we send someone to check on her?” Silas asked Dane. The two of the

    Ashley’s eyes went wide, dazed and bewildered as he captured her lips. She immediately began pounding against his chest, striking him repeatedly as she struggled to wrench herself free, but he was far stronger than she was.Dane slipped his other hand around her neck and pulled her even closer, claiming her lips with greater force until Ashley struggled to breathe. She tried kicking at him, but he refused to budge, and desperation quickly took over. Frantically, she searched for a way to escape. An idea flashed through her mind, though it was far from a good one, so she hesitated before parting her lips. Dane mistook it for surrender and leaned in again, but the instant he did, she sank her teeth hard into his lower lip, drawing a sharp groan before he finally pulled away.Both of them gasped for breath, Ashley glaring daggers at him while Dane stared with a triumphant smirk.“No, I was wrong before. You are a beast!” she hurled, her voice reverberating through the walls of the room.

    “Ah, my bad. I forgot to mention you have to leave now,” Dane divulged, feigning innocence.“I am here to escort you out, Alpha Nathan,” Silas, who had just arrived with two other able-bodied men, said, gesturing toward the exit.Nathan smirked at Dane before turning to Ashley, gently taking her hands into his.“I will be back before you know it. If there’s anything urgent that needs my attention, have it sent through my beta. It will reach me on time,” he said, and Ashley nodded with a warm smile.“Take care of yourself too. Don’t worry about me, I will be fine,” she replied, and he returned her smile.Turning away from her, he faced Dane. “I will entrust my wife’s safety to you, Alpha King. I hope I have no reason to regret it,” he said, his gaze hard.“You can rest assured, Alpha Nathan. I will do my utmost to make your wife comfortable. She is in safe hands,” Dane answered, though it sounded more like a warning than reassurance. A heavy silence settled between the two men until As

    Walking up to them, Ashley slipped her hand into Nathan’s, taking her place beside him. Dane’s gaze dropped to their intertwined fingers, a faint smirk brushing his lips before disappearing. Lifting his eyes back to her, he asked, “Are you also against my order, Alpha Ashley?” One brow arched in question.“Alpha King, my husband and I truly appreciate your concern for me, but like my husband said, we would prefer to remain in the rooms already assigned to us. You do not have to concern yourself with my health. My husband and my family will do that.” She spoke calmly, a gentle smile resting on her lips, polite enough to seem both accepting and rejecting.“Why do I feel like there is a misunderstanding here? You and your husband seem to think I am here to cause trouble.” Dane said.“I assure you, Alpha King, we would never dare misunderstand you. We completely understand your point of view, but we would rather endure the inconvenience than accept your help.” Ashley replied, her smile ne

    “I am so happy to see you,” Florence said, a tear slipping down her cheek. “I was worried about you. Are you okay?” Pulling away from the hug, Ashley asked, her gaze darting over her cousin’s body. When she found no sign of any injury, she sighed in relief before finally looking at her face. “I am fine. But someone isn’t,” Florence answered with a nervous smile, turning to face Nathan, who stared at them with a blank expression. Ashley left Florence’s side and walked up to Nathan. “I...” she started, but he beat her to it. “I am glad you are okay. I was on the verge of losing it if it wasn’t for the Alpha King’s call,” he said. “About that, I can explain,” she replied. “There is no need for that. I know what happened, and I do not blame you for it. I only hate myself for ever leaving your side yesterday. I should have stayed. I should have been there for you,” Nathan admitted, his gaze filled with so much regret that Ashley could not help but feel guilty. “Alpha King!” Everyone

    The following morning, Ashley woke to the soft chorus of birds chirping outside, groaning quietly as she pushed herself upright. Fragments of the previous night rushed back to her, prompting her to turn to the other side of the bed. Her brows knitted together when she found the space beside her empty.She stretched out her hand, her worry deepening when her fingers met cold sheets. Panic immediately settled in her chest. Had something happened to him, or had he simply left without a word?Hurriedly, she climbed out of bed and made her way toward the door, not even realizing she was barefoot.“And where are you going?” A familiar voice asked from behind her.Ashley spun around at once, a deep breath escaping her lips the moment she saw him standing there. Relief washed over her, but it lasted only a second before her eyes betrayed her. Fresh from the bath, Dane stood at the doorway with his shirt hanging loosely in one hand, his broad chest completely bare. Tiny droplets of water clung
